Popis: Number: 6 PMID: 32072243; OBJECTIVE: The aim of our study was to evaluate the importance of a non-injected T1-weighted spin-echo sequence (T1WSE) combined with a non-echo-planar diffusion-weighted (non-EPDW) sequence for the pre-operative detection of cholesteatoma by the radiologist on MRI, compared to surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this retrospective case review, 113 patients with chronic otitis underwent surgery (gold standard) for a clinical suspicion of cholesteatoma. Our primary outcome was to compare non-EPDW images + a contrast-free T1WSE sequence for cholesteatoma detection. Our secondary outcome was to quantify the signal intensity value of the suspected lesions, relative to the signal intensity of the cerebellum (Sic) to calculate Signal Intensity Ratios (SIR = SI/Sic). The SIR values of cholesteatomatous and non-cholesteatomatous tissue were compared to surgical findings. Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis determined an optimum SIR cut-off value for the prediction of cholesteatoma. RESULTS: The sensitivity (96.9%) of non-EPDW for the diagnosis of cholesteatoma was high, with good specificity (74.2%), and increased to 85.5% when combined to a T1WSE sequence. Additionally, the mean SIR values (on T1WSE) of cholesteatoma were significantly lower than non-cholesteatomatous tissue (p 90%) and reduces risks of false-positive cases for surgeons.
